Effects of Exercise Training on Cardiac Function in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

Nearly half of patients with heart failure in the community have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Patients with HFpEF are often elderly and their primary chronic symptom is severe exercise intolerance. Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is associated with the pathophysiolo...
